Plan to burn Confederate flags....

"A Florida artist has vowed to stage burnings and “belated burials” of the Confederate flag as part of an exhibit he said would take place in multiple Southern cities on Memorial Day, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

“The Confederate flag is a flag of terror from its use by the [Ku Klux] Klan in the ’20s to the anti-civil rights movement in the ’50s and ’60s,” John Sims said. “The flag is almost too toxic to handle, and for those who do, I’m suspicious of their engagement. Are you in denial?”

The project is reportedly slated to take place in all of the former Confederate states, along with cities in Kentucky and Missouri. The exhibit is the latest in a series of works Sims has done involving the flag, saying he was inspired by how often he saw it after moving to Florida."

I'm sure the same people who said the "Draw Mohamed" incident was entirely inappropriate because it was reasonably expected to be bitterly offensive to people will also find this equally unacceptable because it, too, will be reasonably expected to be bitterly offensive to some people. Let's hear from one and all of those people about how this is wrong!!

The only thing wrong with stuff like this (and the cartoon thing) is people having this much pointless time on their hands.

The easiest way to hurt Mr. Sims is to ignore him.

Why would anyone care if he, or anyone for that matter, burn the confederate flag?

You do know that the Civil War was not about slavery as the sole/major issue, right? 1% owned slaves and some were Black owners. It was about the power of government becoming overwhelming. The same thing is happening now. Will this happen again because government is out of control and no one learns from history? We shall see.

So yes, the Confederate flag has meaning. There have been a few states in modern history in our time that want to secede.

Hey retard, none of that has anything to do with what I said, nor does it explain why anyone would have a problem with the burning of a confederate flag.

It's a white thing. You wouldn't understand.

Just like why would anyone sit still for hours and let someone tie knots in their hair so they don't have to wash or comb it for a month.

I understand white things and I couldn't care any less about the confederate flag.

That's fine, of course. Those who are directly descended from family that fought and died under that flag might feel differently. There are a large number of such people in southern MD, too.
